đôi
"Đôi" in English means "pair" or "couple."
Here, 'đôi' is used to refer to a pair, indicating two items that make up a set, such as shoes.
Tôi mang một đôi giày mới.

In this case, 'đôi' implies a pair in the sense of two persons closely associated, often friends or companions.

They are a good pair of friends.
Here, 'đôi' is metaphorically used to mean 'a couple' or 'a few,' conveying an approximate count.
